Trouble connecting via python (HW v3.4)

Support
1

I’m new to ODrive development. I have a custom board based on v3.4 hardware.

I’ve successfully flashed version 0.4.12 firmware to the board via an ST-Link V2.

I’m connecting USB to a Windows PC. I used the Zadig tool to select “libusb-win32 (v1.2.6.0)” for “Odrive 3.4 Native Interface (Interface 2)”

I installed Anaconda and then ODrive via pip.

odrivetool –verbose isn’t connecting to the device (I’ve waited for 30 seconds). Do I need a different firmware version on the board? Or might something else be a problem?

Here’s the python output:

>odrivetool --verbose
ODrive control utility v0.5.1.post0
Waiting for ODrive...

Well, that version of odrivetool is assuming the firmware is 0.5.1 but that shouldn’t stop it from working. You have some other issue.

Thanks for the info, I rolled back to odrivetool 0.4.12 and its functional.
